The popularity of social networking services has been increasing in recent years. Hundreds of millions of active users can pose a risk of information overload. These popular services have recommender systems that can capture user interests and provide users with potentially interesting information. It is different from the relatively new Youth Break the Boundaries (YBB) social networking application, it does not yet have complete features, let alone a complex recommender system which causes user interest in using the application is low. Implementing this system on the YBB application will affect the flow of the existing system so that a comprehensive update is needed. The development uses the cosine similarity algorithm on the application search page. It is proven to be able to provide recommendations for users with an accuracy rate of 0.92. With this system, users are helped in expanding their network with other users who have the same interests.
